|
Deep green shinin' with the saddest glow |
|
Eyes fixed on me as she turns to go |
|
Forever burned, forever carved into my soul |
|
Try to hold on though it's no use |
|
I knowShe's gonna leave |
|
She's gonna take one last look at me |
|
Then I'll be watchin' love go sailin' |
|
Feelin' my tears come tumblin' down my face' |
|
Cause I can't face the lettin' go |
|
So my soul returns to searchin' |
|
All the colors now are fadin' |
|
Watchin' the world fallin' apart |
|
It's breakin' my heart |
|
There's a black tide turnin' again |
|
And I am a drownin' man |
|
She's seen me fall, she's seen the weakest part of me |
|
So many lonely days, she was my only company |
|
I've come to see the world through those deep green eyes |
|
Lookin' at me now holdin' the secrets to my life |
|
She's gonna leave me |
|
She's gonna turn the tide on me |
|
Then I'll be watchin' love go sailin' |
|
Feelin' my tears come tumblin' down my face |
|
I can't face the lettin' go |
|
So my soul returns to searchin' |
|
All the colors now are fadin' |
|
Watchin' the world, fallin' apart |
|
Breakin' my heart |
|
There's a black tide turnin' again |
|
I am a drownin' man, yeah, yeah |
|
Black tide turnin', waves crushin' down |
|
I'm slowly learnin', slowly comin' 'round |
|
See I can't change it, what's gonna be is gonna be |
|
Can't stop her leavin', can't fight the rigid sea |
|
The black tides turnin' again, |
|
I'm a drownin' man |
